About The Shoppes at College Hills

This retail complex in Normal, Illinois, is a lifestyle center rather than a visitor attraction with admission. Its home page describes more than thirty shops, restaurants, and services gathered at one site, with a focus on fashion, accessories, and everyday goods. Visitors can also dine there and check on current sales and events. The Wikipedia entry notes that the property began in 1980 as an enclosed mall called College Hills Mall, was torn down, and was rebuilt in 2005 as an open-air center. Its anchor tenants include Hobby Lobby, Target, Crunch Fitness, and Von Maur. The center is one of two major shopping areas in the Bloomington-Normal area.
